Are you kidding me? He could have least got the man a watch. Or a nice bottle of wine. Hell, even a Snuggie would have been a better gift. George and Weezie are just way out of their league in this realm. And it occurred to me. No doubt these DVDs were made in China. Thanks for supporting the American economy asshat.

As he headed back home from Washington, Gordon Brown must have rummaged through his party bag with disappointment.

Because all he got was a set of DVDs. Barack Obama, the leader of the world's richest country, gave the Prime Minister a box set of 25 classic American films - a gift about as exciting as a pair of socks.

Mr Brown is not thought to be a film buff, and his reaction to the box set is unknown. But it didn't really compare to the thoughtful presents he had brought along with him. Marking the special relationship: The Browns put a lot of thought into their gifts for the Obamas - but the gesture did not seem to be reciprocated

What was in the Box:

He gave a man who only has sight in one eye, and very poor sight at that, a set of movies that won’t play in the country he lives in.

PLEASE GOD WILL THE REST OF THE WORLD RECOGNIZE WHAT A JERK AND/OR MORON THE OBAMA’S ARE???

Ok, while reading threads for the past half an hour, I have gone from bursting into tears to angry to sad and now laughing out loud.

Great post!

I love this place!

As much as this incident shows what a cheap and graceless buffoon Obama really is, the fault lies not with him so much as the people at the Office of Protocol, who should have made the arrangements for the gift to Prime Minister Brown.

They’d know what would be appropriate, and they either dropped the ball or let Obama pick it up in the first place.

I don’t think Obama even wants to “remake” the United States into a socialist state.

I think he wants to KILL all the white people in America, through economic chaos, freezing, starving, terrorist attack, etc.—and is willing to see a lot of black people die, too, if that’s what it takes.

Just as he is happy to see most black pregnancies end in murder, just as long as white babies are murdered, too.
